Kickboxing instructor Tiffannie Bruce will be participating in the 2012 Fight for Air Climb for the American Lung Association.

This event is held annually in downtown Des Moines and will be again this year March 4. Tiffannie will be climbing the 801 Grand Building stairs with hundreds of other participants.

"I will be climbing in honor of my son, Kinser, who had chronic lung disease when he was born ..." said Bruce. "I will also be climbing in honor of my grandma who is a survivor of lung cancer..."

To support Tiffannie's $100 goal to participate (all funds go to American Lung Association), go to her page at http://action.lung.org/site/TR/Climb/ALAUM_Upper_Midwest?px=4793800....

Good luck Tiffannie on your climb and thanks for helping support the American Lunc Association!
